Switching USB port for default printer

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance



I have a USB printer setup as a local default printer with printer port USB001. Sometimes, when I
unplug the USB cable and plug it back in, Windows will install a copy of the printer on port USB002.
It is inconvenient to have to switch it to become the default printer.

How do I make the default printer work regardless of the USB port assigned?
